Get your frightful fill of AMC Fear Fest, over 100 titles this October

Posted Monday, September 30, 2019, at 8:21 PM

NEW YORK — One of the best horror movie marathons officially kicks off on Sunday, October 13. AMC's FearFest is back for the All Hallows' Eve season. Whereas, Freeform focuses more on family friendly titles, FearFest is curated with a more traditional, hardcore selection of scary flicks.

Remember, these titles are all edited for content (violence, nudity and some language) because they appear on television, so these horror and sci-fi classics are more like bicycles with training wheels: perfect for younger, curious newbies to the macabre movie genre.

FearFest is one of Halloween's more recent traditions — running strong since 1996 — and features over 100 0n-air titles. The marathon beings at midnight CDT on October 13 with "Jaws 2" (1978) followed by "Jaws 3-D" (1983), which will not be shown in 3D, at 2:30 a.m. The on-air schedule for Day One picks back up at 9:45 a.m. with "Halloween II" (1981). For more of the on-air FearFest selections, as they become available, click here.

As an added bonus this year, AMC will stream a number of on-demand horror titles beginning on Tuesday, October 1 through their website and Apps. These titles are FREE to watch, but in order to sign in via AMC you must do so through your service provider (DIRECTV, YouTubeTV, dish, fios, et cetera).
